Absolutely brilliant.
I would recommend this to people who enjoy Dark Souls games and Elden Ring.
If anyone is on the fence about Elden Ring, this gives it a bit of a twist on Elden Rings formula; Black Myth is much more linear but it doesn't feel restrictive, I would call this game Open-Linear, similar to how Metro Exodus is described.
Black Myth allows you to explore a bit but without guidance.
The graphics are top tier, I can't name anything that looks better, it's incredibly dense with enough scale that you are forced to explore, similar to Elden Ring but not to that scale.

There are two negatives to the game so far that I can see and are of course my opinion and from my experience and related to my setup.
The two negatives are: No native 32:9 support, this obviously won't affect many, but very disappointing for a top tier Unreal Engine 5 game.
The other is the optimisation. There seems to have been a lot of effort into the first chapter for optimisation, it runs great on the highest settings. Chapter 2, I almost halved my fps from 120 capped to about 70-80 fps. This hasn't bothered me too much, I went down from Cinematic settings to a mixture of High and Very High and the game still looks great and runs better, just a shame that there is such a significant difference, this probably wasn't down to laziness, but down to lack of time, but time management probably wasn't great here.

I would still highly recommend the game even in it's current state, unless you have a game hovering around the minimum or recommended specs, in the other chapters you may have an experience you're not comfortable with.
